SAN DIEGO, Sept. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTC: MJNA), a leading hemp industry innovator, announces today that its Interim President and CEO, Michael Llamas, is taking a leave of absence effective immediately. According to the company, Mr. Llamas will be stepping down from his position in order to focus his attention on personal business matters that are entirely unrelated to MJNA.

In the meantime, the future for MJNA has never looked brighter and we fully expect to continue executing on our business plan," states Mr. Caligiuri.
